Cost Of Solar Battery For House In this video, the host of the YouTube channel Quint BUILDs explains how you could store enough energy to power a portion of a home for several hours without using regular batteries. He accomplishes this by using solar power to pump water up onto his roof and then releasing it to generate electricity. The solutions to the numerous problems he encounters while doing the project are almost as fun to see as the system itself, so if you want to see how he manages to pull it off, watch the video above, and enjoy.
